Chapter 8 - THE OLD CLOCK

"But how can we get out of this day?""Who knows",she replied casually.

"Okay,lets go home".They both walked to the house.She saw the house with mesmarisation ,as she is in a paradise.Larry saw the clock and the needles are still in the time 9:00.Larry went into the kitchen and turned the stove but,it's in the same position.He tried very hard to turn the regulator but it stands rigid like a boulder.

"You cannot do anything,my dear"she said as sitting in the chair."We are stuck in time".His grandmother looked at the clock in the house.She watched it with some intention.

"Do you use this clock?",she asked."Yes ,but today its only showing nine o'clock"."Oh!!how do I forget this?",she asked to herself.

"Forget…forget What?",he asked with curiosity."Did you noticed that the dot in the center point of the clock is black now".Now Larry saw the clock closely."Yes, it's always glows like a sapphire".

"So this is the only way to get out of this day. Without the power of the stone the clock cannot run"."Is that a legit sapphire?",Larry asked curiously."No!who will give you a sapphire ?"she said."We need to make it work again".

"But ,how can we make it work again?",asked Larry."We need a thing that doesn't belong here",she replied."What!,something that doesn't belong here,like any aliens or extra terrestrial things?"Larry asked with a curiosity.

"No,it means something that's dead"she said."So,you need something that's dead"."Yes"she said."Do I wanna kill something?"."No,it should be already dead"."But ,how we can move it?",he asked."We can move things that's doesn't belong this time.That's why we can move and we can open your doors because they don't belong here"."I saw some dead leaves in the lawn",said Larry with enthusiasm."Go take it".
